This is it

I get clockwise when I look at the entire picture. To get it to go counter-clockwise I focus on the reflection of her foot on the ground.

It's funny, I'm a CS major so theoretically I should be left-brained, but for some reason it's ten times easier for me to see her as going clockwise than counter-clockwise. Hmm...maybe it's a sign I should switch to fashion design instead.

Focus on the reflection people

MG, i'm with you. I can force myself to see some of the stillframes as counter-clockwise, but i'm going batty looking at the animated one. i think that if i eventually see her slow down and spin the other way it will have signalled some sort of irreparable brain rift...

awesome! i finally got her to spin counter clockwise! now all i have to do is look at her foot and she changes. i guess cuz my brain knows what to do now.

clockwise but i can change it if i want, and i'm everthing in that list

clockwise only for me.

I think that there's only one way to solve this: Ask the maker of the 3-D model which way it's actually spinning In the frames that GM changed the name of, I can force myself to see how it goes with the name. But when I watch the video, I can not force myself to see it go counter-clockwise.

well, i guess i'm the oddball here. I saw her turning counterclockwise first, and I couldn't make her turn clockwise. Well, until i went to push the upvote button then HEY, SHE'S DOING IT!

I can see the still frames as counter-clockwise, MG. Weird huh? Perception still rules.

My wife and I both see it clockwise, but she's far more artistic than I am. I got her to slow down, but that might just be my crappy browser/computer Excellent sift. I forwarded it to my entire family.

proof that she's going anti-clockwise :

(that's a bugmenot account so don't blame me if someone eventually replaces it with a picture of a cock)

My guess, is that because the 3D model is monochromed, to the eye, ti can completely loose all 3d shape. The brain, attempts to perceive it as 3D because it is moving. The monochrome nature allows the mind to flip it, like a negative, so the leg that is left becomes right, and so on, and you're seeing through the body (the 3d clockwise one) to see the inverse form. except, i cant make my eye do it.

Can someone who can see it go AC, confirm if my theory above, on how the AC spin appears is correct? or is it bumpkus, in which case, how DOES it appear, when going ac, if that question dosent sound like trying to describe a circle (its round)

if that's spinning counter-clockwise i'll eat and digest my right thumb.

I honestly believe that the 3-D model is spinning clockwise, but due to differing perceptions, people may see it differently.

I get clockwise when I look at the entire picture. To get it to go counter-clockwise I focus on the reflection of her foot on the ground.

Using the image that SG referenced it became clear to me that key is watching her left foot. If you focus in on it, you can envision it oscillating back and forth with the toes pointed away from you rather than rotating. From there you can envision it going either clockwise or counter-clockwise.
